Windows on Arm is finally getting ready for gaming! Fortnite now runs on Snapdragon-powered Windows PCs. It's one of the major changes being rolled out to Windows on Arm PCs. Recently, Microsoft also enabled new CPU features for Windows on Arm emulation tech called 'Prism.' It now exposes AVX/AVX2, which allows high-performance computing. This enables support for game engines and resource-intensive apps that expect AVX and won’t start without it. You’ll see big gains in compatibility and mixed results in speed. Unlike traditional PCs, Snapdragon PCs offer up to 22 hours of battery life with no drop in performance when unplugged.

The New River is the oldest river in the United States.

To a circuit board manufacturer, everything is a circuit board.

There's a world of opportunity ahead for digital stores that look to the future and to new areas of growth. New product categories, new markets, new platforms, new interconnectivity.

We haven't confirmed this, and haven't taken any steps related to it on our end, but: The tweet below suggests iOS 26.2 Beta 1 allows installation of AltStore PAL and Epic Games Store in Japan.

This could be the most important development for the smartphone business in the Android-iPhone era since the launch of the Apple and Google app stores. If this goes through and developers and consumers value the benefits, it will put enormous pressure on Apple to open up.

Google has made an awesome proposal, subject to court approval, to open up Android in the US Epic v Google case and settle our disputes. It genuinely doubles down on Android's original vision as an open platform to streamline competing store installs globally, reduce service fees for developers on Google Play, and enable third-party in-app and web payments. This is a comprehensive solution, which stands in contrast to Apple’s model of blocking all competing stores and leaving payments as the only vector for competition. The public filings are live.

This is gaming in 2025.
